STUDENTS & MEMBERSHIP

Theatre at Lakewood High School is centered on its students. Every production depends on their creativity, energy, and commitment. Students take on a wide range of roles, from acting and singing to designing sets, managing lights and sound, and coordinating stage management. Every contribution matters.

Each student is encouraged to explore different areas of theatre. Some focus on performing, learning how to develop characters, project their voices, and connect with an audience. Others gain hands-on experience in technical theatre, learning skills like set construction, lighting design, costume creation, and sound operation. Leadership opportunities allow students to grow beyond their individual roles.

Students work together throughout the entire production process, from initial rehearsals to final performances. They learn to collaborate, solve problems in real time, and adapt when unexpected challenges arise. These experiences teach responsibility, teamwork, and time management in a creative, practical setting.

Beyond skill-building, LHSTC offers a community where students support one another, share ideas, and celebrate accomplishments together. Students form lasting connections and a sense of pride in their work, knowing that every production is the result of their combined effort.
